- 200g Eggs (4)
- 100g Caster Sugar
- 65g Self-raising Flour
- 40g Cocoa Powder
- 150ml Whipping Cream
- 150g Ricotta
- 250ml whipping cream
- 150g chocolate
- 30g KITKAT® Chocolate & Wafer Pieces Mix-ins
-
1To make the sponge: In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until the mixture reaches the ribbon stage (it should fall in a thick ribbon when lifted).
-
2Sift the flour and cocoa powder into the bowl. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until fully incorporated.
-
3Pour the batter into a lined shallow baking tin, spreading it evenly into the corners. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for 8–10 minutes, or until the sponge is cooked through.
-
4Once baked, remove the sponge from the oven. Trim the edges roughly 1 cm all around.
-
5Invert the sponge onto a piece of parchment paper dusted with icing sugar. Carefully roll the sponge up with the parchment paper, starting from one end. Allow the rolled sponge to cool completely.
-
6To make the filing: In a separate bowl, whip the cream and ricotta together until soft peaks form.
-
7Carefully unroll the cooled sponge, spoon the cream filling onto the surface, and then re-roll the sponge tightly.
-
8To make the chocolate ganache: Gently heat the cream in a saucepan until warm. Pour it over the chocolate in a bowl and mix until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth.
-
9To Finish: Pour the chocolate ganache over the rolled sponge, allowing it to drip down the sides. Before the ganache sets, sprinkle the KITKAT® Chocolate & Wafer Pieces Mix-ins over the top.
-
10Chill the roll cake in the refrigerator before serving.
